My Affordable Art: Alan Koh

Alan Koh, Fair Director of Affordable Art Fair Singapore, gives us the lowdown on his favourite Affordable Art Fair purchases.

Alan’s picks include a charcoal and graphite collage by Hilmi Johandi and a vivid painted woodblock by Lim Jia Qi. Both artists were winners of our Young Talent Programme in Singapore – Hilmi in 2014 and Jia Qi in 2019.

Alan has a very eclectic taste when it comes to collecting, but is particularly drawn to artworks that depict Singaporean life.
